Comic Timing Episode 287 – Two At Start, Four At Finish

You get a little bit of everything this episode, all the way down to who is on it! Ian and Brent start out old school as a duo, touching on the trailer for the new Batman: Knightfall animated movie and how the 90s keeps on coming back as strong as ever. They then switch over to the ever-increasing cost of conventions right as Brandon joins in on the conversation, My Adventures with Superman Season Three and need for a “Previously,on…”, and then go into how the heck Marvel can continue to have Magneto be a Holocaust survivor in the year 2026 and beyond, and some discussion on the size of Omnibuses (and this one kid who will soon steal all our podcasting jobs). Finally, Kris joins us for her spoiler-free thoughts on the new Supergirl movie, which we will give our full spoiler-filled review on our next episode, which also is our 20th Anniversary Live Zoom, which will take place on July 1st at 7:30pm ET (doors open at 7pm ET)! We then end with some recent reads, including Ian finally tackling Batman: Dark Patterns and Ice Cream Man, Brandon going through Dungeon Crawler Carl, Kris returns to Powers (both the comic AND the show), Brent tells off to get off his lawn about audiobooks versus books, somehow we mention smut, and more! And earmuffs, it’s a Blue Team episode so there be cussin’.

Comic Timing Episode 210 – The New York Comic Con 2022 Wrap-Up

New York Comic Con 2022 was held from October 6-9, 2022. Now that the con has been put to bed, this Comic Timing/CGS crossover episode goes into the minutia of what went down, from the mindset of longtime convention attendees, artist alley participants, and one first-timer. The crew consists of Ian Levenstein (haven’t missed a NYCC yet!), Kris Naudus, Jamal Igle, Julian Lytle, and Donovan Morgan Grant. They discuss both positives and negatives, ranging from layout to inconsistent rules management, panel slate, the exhibition floor, crown management, and a whole lot more. Plus some comic book recommendations at the end to round us out.
